It's been a pretty quiet day on the trade front, but here are the main points of interest:

Michael Gleeson and Sam McClure report that Essendon have approached Collingwood about a possible trade for Mason Cox. Cox would shape as a positional replacement for the Dons should they accede to Joe Daniher's trade request. Read the full story here.

Essendon livewire Orazio Fantasia has chosen TLA's South Australian-based Michael Doughty to manage him just weeks after Fantasia split with his former manager Anthony McConville.

Collingwood have confirmed that Jamie Elliott will stay with the club, re-signing on a two-year deal. Elliott spurned offers from Melbourne and Brisbane to stay a Pie.

On Monday, unrestricted free agent Adam Tomlinson joined Melbourne on a five-year deal worth $500,000. This morning, Tomlinson gave his first press conference as a Demons player. Tomlinson said he was looking forward to working hard and getting stuck into a big pre-season.
